Blondie 'Atomic' 1st March for 2 weeks
Fern Kenny 'Together we are beautiful' March 15th for 1 week

An interesting month that went from a mix girl/boy sound to a complete girlie sound to a complete boy sound............

Can't remember if I told you I went
to school with Jimmy Pursey (Sham 69),
but my best mate at school lived opposite Paul Weller in Woking.

And Rick Astley, used to drink in our local in Worthing of course, (he
was quite a nice guy, despite the crap world wide Number 1).

Did you have a wee soap opera happening there? You really must tell us how you ended up with the (now ex-husband) instead of Sam.

Daddy Papersurfer said...

So Sam and Nowexhusband were comparing notes were they? ....... tsk

fracas said...

Arrrrrrrgh. Your counter thing hates me... always. I'm using the cauldron on it for sure now.

It said I had 2 comments, then I left some comments and it said I had 6 and then when I refreshed the page again it said I only had 2 again.

BUT... I noticed DP was here in between. I think he broke your counter like he broke the internet that time...

Therefore, I've decided DP needs to plan to take you and I out for a lovely dinner sometime. (Please send airline tickets to my box # DP... quick like a bunny...)

Whew. I feel better now.

Ooh, I was playing the Jam this weekend. (That's Entertainment - one of my all time faves.)
I was born in the same hospital as Sting - but not in the same decade!

Daddy Papersurfer said...
